ABSTRACT

An air compressor with shock-absorption rubber strips at a bottom thereof, wherein the air compressor has an air compressor. At least one shock-absorption rubber strip is installed to the air compressor bottom plate; the shock-absorption rubber strip is firmly secured to the air compressor bottom plate. The shock-absorption rubber strip is installed with a plurality of elastic foot pad so that when the air compressor is actuated, the elastic foot pad will absorb the shock of a casing of the air compressor.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] (a) Field of the Invention

[0002] The present invention relates to an air compressor with shock-absorption rubber strips at a bottom thereof, where the air compressor bottom plate is combined to at least one shock-absorption rubber strip so as to assure that the air compressor will not move when the air compressor is actuated.

[0003] (b) Description of the Prior Art

[0004] When a prior art air compressor is actuated, the components will vibrate so that it is possible that the air compressor will displace. However, this is undesirable, especially as the air compressor is placed on the rear cover of a car engine or is installed at a higher place. In actuation, the casing of the air compressor will fall down due to the vibration.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0005] Accordingly, the primary object of the present invention is to provide an air compressor with shock-absorption rubber strips at a bottom thereof. The air compressor comprises an air compressor. At least one shock-absorption rubber strip is installed to the air compressor bottom plate; the shock-absorption rubber strip is firmly secured to the air compressor bottom plate. The shock-absorption rubber strip is installed with a plurality of elastic foot pad so that when the air compressor is actuated, the elastic foot pad will absorb the shock of a casing of the air compressor.

[0006] Moreover, the shock-absorption rubber strips can be combined to the air compressor bottom plate straightly, transversally or obliquely. Moreover, the shock-absorption rubber strip may be arranged with a cross form and then is combined to the air compressor bottom plate so that as the air compressor 1 is actuated, the air compressor absorbs the vibration of the casing as to achieve the object of no displacement.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0020] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 3, the air compressor with shock-absorption rubber strips at a bottom thereof of the present invention is illustrated. The air compressor with shock-absorption rubber strips at a bottom thereof includes an air compressor 1 and at least one shock-absorption rubber strip 2 or 2 a.

[0021] The air compressor 1 is identical to the prior art air compressor with an electromotive device therein. The outer side of the air compressor 1 may be installed with a pressure indicator 11 or an illuminator 12.

[0022] The shock-absorption rubber strip 2 or 2 a is made of elastic rubbers, which may be a single close striped frame as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 (or a single non-closed striped frame), or may be formed by two separated stripped frame (referring to FIG. 3). Each shock-absorption rubber strip 2 or 2 a encloses in the sidewall of the air compressor bottom plate 13 (referring to FIG. 4), as shown in the figure. The side wall of shock-absorption rubber strip 2 or 2 a installed with the air compressor bottom plate 13 have matched embedded groove 21 or 21 a so that the engagement can be executed easily. Likewise, other than above said engagement, other ways, such as locking or gluing can be used to achieve the same effect.

[0023] At lease one elastic shock-absorption rubber strip 2 or 2 a is installed to the air compressor bottom plate 13, and then when the air compressor is actuated, the shock-absorption rubber strip 2 or 2 a will absorb the vibration of the casing of the air compressor so as to assure that the air compressor 1 is stood at the original place. Thereby, the air compressor 1 will not displace as it is started.

[0024] Referring to FIGS. 5 and 6, another embodiment of the shock-absorption rubber strip 2 b of the present invention is illustrated. In that a lower end of the shock-absorption rubber strip and a selected lateral side are integrally formed with a frame seat 22 b and at least one food pad 23 b so that the shock-absorption rubber strip 2 b can be fixed and combined to the lateral wall of the air compressor bottom plate 13. In another case, as shown in FIG. 17, other than the shock-absorption rubber strip and a selected lateral side being integrally formed with a frame seat 22 c and at least one food pad 23 c, the frame seat 22 c may have a hollow structure (referring to FIGS. 5 and 6, in that the frame seat 22 has a solid structure).

[0025] Likewise, the shock-absorption rubber strip 2 b or 2 c may be locked or sticky to the air compressor bottom plate 13 other than fixing by embedding so as to achieve the same effect.

[0026] Referring to FIG. 8, another embodiment about the shock-absorption rubber strip 2 b is illustrated. A lower end portion of the frame-like rubber strip is formed with at least one supporter 24 d for enhancing the shock-absorption ability.

[0027] The present invention is thus described, it will be obvious that the same may be varied in many ways. For example, the at least one shock-absorption rubber strip at the air compressor bottom plate is not confined to the lateral wall of the air compressor bottom plate, for example, in FIG. 9, the shock-absorption rubber strip 2 e may be any proper shape to be firmly secured to the air compressor bottom plate 13, or as shown in FIGS. 10 to 12, the shock-absorption rubber strips 2 f, 2 g, 2 h, etc. can be combined to the air compressor bottom plate 13 straightly, transversally or obliquely. Moreover, the shock-absorption rubber strip 2 i may be arranged with a cross form and then is combined to the air compressor bottom plate 13 so that as the air compressor 1 is actuated, the air compressor absorbs the vibration of the casing as to achieve the object of no displacement. Such variations are not to be regarded as a departure from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and all such modifications as would be obvious to one skilled in the art are intended to be included within the scope of the following claims.
